18-24 players is ideal for a fun PVKII match. More players is welcome if the server can handle it, however too many players and the game becomes quite a bit chaotic (Although still fun!)
Every player will have a preference, some people like 3-9 players, and other likes 18-24 players. Generally the pvkii experience of rambunctious combat hits it's peak around 18-24 players. If you're looking for slow-paced duels then 3-9 is the right amount.
